well, hello and welcome to our viewers around the world. i'm becky anderson in london for you. it's just after 6:00 in the morning here where britain is now preparing to say its final good-bye to the country's longest serving monarch. queen elizabeth's state funeral is now just hours away. and ahead of that buckingham

palace released this previously unseen photo of her majesty taken back in may. well, right now the queen is lying in state at westminster hall behind me here where mourners continue to file past her coffin to pay their respect. a scene that's played out around the clock since wednesday. in less than an hour the public viewing will come to a close. well, on sunday people across britain paused for a moment of silence and reflection in her honor. >> prime minister liz truss also paying tribute outside ten

downing street. let's start this hour with cnn's scott mcclain who joins us from very close to the palace of westminster. you are with those getting their last chance to pay their respects to the queen. at one stage the queue to do that snaked along the river thames some 6 miles. it was at one stage some 25 hours the waiting time. they've closed that queue now. so those who are there will be the last to get the opportunity, scott, to pay their weres. what's the mood like? >> reporter: yeah, so, i've been trying to find an adjective to describe this, becky. it's obviously not a party atmosphere. people are queuing to see the queen's body lying in-state, and also not necessarily all that somber. it's somewhere in between. there's a lot of camaraderie between the people who are here. all of them share a common admiration for the queen and a

desire to pay their respects. let me just give you quickly a lay of the land. just around the corner is westminster hall where the queen's buddy is lying in state, and you can see the line snakes underneath the tower, and as you mentioned at one point it had gone for 5 or 6 miles along the thames river. this is now the end of it. at around 10:30, 10:40 at night that is when they announced the line had officially closed. and you're seeing right now the last of the people going through these gates back and forth. so from here it's pretty much a straight shot onto westminster hall. and let me just see if i can grab someone to talk to really quickly. the line moving a little quickly. i've got to go around to the other side. remember these people have been in line for about 6, 7 hours, which is a lot better than it had been. and they're all given numbered wrist bands. so the very first people that we

spoke to this was wednesday evening around 5:00, they had single digits. so literally one, two, three, et cetera. the wrist bands we're seeing on people right now the highest i've seen is 243,000. so just imagine how many people -- it's hard to comprehend that number of people actually filing past the queen's coffin, but that's what we've seen here. let me just try to grab someone really quickly and ask them how long that they've been here. ma'am, just wondering how long you guys have been waiting for here? >> hours. we setout about 9:00 and then we had to get off the train and had to pull in the car. so we've been traveling about 20 hours almost. >> reporter: why was it so important for you to come? >> a moment of history and

really important for my granddaughter as well. >> reporter: thank you for talking to us. we appreciate it. sir, just wondering why it was so important for you to be here. >> sorry? >> reporter: why was it so important for you to be here? >> i suppose because of my age i saw the last one, which was winster churchill, a proper state funeral, so this is my second one. >> reporter: how old are you? >> 77. >> reporter: wow, you look great. how does it feel to be among the last to file past the coffin? >> i'm lucky to be here. i didn't think i'd be here, but i'm grateful i made it. >> reporter: thank you, sir. appreciate it. you'll see all the cameras, all the lights following the last people. the last woman there officially we think is a woman named christina there. if you can believe it this is actually her second time going in to file past the coffin. she had waited in line for 7, 8 hours the first time around. when she got in she said, well,

that was quick. she already had the wristband, and now she's been waiting, well, about four or five hours again to do it the second time. so she'll be the very last person to file past the queen's coffin. >> scott mcclain is very close to the palace in westminster there. thank you. the queen's state funeral expected to be one of the largest diplomatic gatherings in recent memory. leaders from all parts of the world have traveled here to say their good-byes. amongst them u.s. president joe biden, the french leader emmanuel macron. they are joined by many british allies including representatives of most commonwealth countries such as australia and new zealand as well as other royal families from around the world, the former king of spain. it's a guest list that includes just about every nation with which the u.k. has full

diplomatic relations. with me now is simon lewis, former press secretary to queen elizabeth. you worked with her majesty back in the late 1990s, and as i understand it the plans then were in place for this funeral. they've been in place for a very long time. they've been activated, what, some ten days ago now. and just your thoughts on what we've seen over this past week and a half? >> first of all, you're right, those plans in place. the queen's plan london bridge, and even 20 years ago the queen was fine tuning the detail. they're pragmatic about these matters, as are all members of the royal family. i'm sure the queen would realize there'd be some tweaks and people didn't know necessarily she was going to pass away at balmoral. the meticulous planning, judging the mood of the people and coming here this morning you get a sense this is a great historic day for britain. more world leaders arriving here

anytime since winston churchill's state funeral in 1965. >> and this city certainly hasn't seen proceedings like this since 1965. and scott talking to a gentleman there who was actually in london for that. it looks as if some 250,000 or so have paid their respects standing in the queue for hours and hours and hours. the last of those are now going through the palace of westminster, and then over the next four or five hours, six hours today we will see the end of what is the final journey for queen elizabeth ii. what can people expect? >> they'll expect obviously the procession from westminster hall to the abbey, and that will be a very particular, very strong military theme with members of the family passing by. we'll see in the abbey we now know prince george and princess

charlotte. how extraordinary is that, the youngest great grandchildren going to be there and the funeral which has been meticulously planned, a reading from the prime minister and then the last journey. >> the diplomatic sort of maneuverings here are important, aren't they, when we're talking about representatives around the world. and there is a pecking order to a certain extent, and the palace would have been working on that for some time. >> somebody said it could be a diplomatic nightmare because it's a question of status, obviously president biden here, president macron here, and i thought, by the way, the president spoke very well yesterday about his relationship with the queen. last night was important because there was the king meeting the diplomats and the prime ministers and heads of states. i think i have to say as a brit it feels we are the center of attention over these few days from a diplomatic point of view. but i suspect there'll be

seating plan arrangements. >> it occurred to me as i drove through london 3:00 in the morning to come here and it's now just after 6:00 in the morning you expect the stillness in this city, but there was a sense of quiet, which is different from it being another middle of the night. i mean we had that now over these last few days as mourners have been paying their respects. how would you describe it? >> i'd use one other word, gratitude. every person interviewed and i think it's amazing after 70 years people want to cue for 30, 40 hours to show their gratitude. it has been a lifetime of service. and for people to feel gratitude after that long is not just right but feels as you say quite special. >> we know the queen has been

tweaking the order of service, and that of course starts at 11:00 this morning. that's five hours from now. that's a big affair. it will be one of the most watched tv events certainly in britain's history if not in the world. after that her coffin will go to windsor -- to windsor castle where proceedings will be a lot more intimate, won't they? just remind our viewers or explain to our viewers what windsor castle means to the queen. >> well, windsor castle was where the queen spent a lot of time but not just away from her public life, but she did a lot of public interviews there. it's a beautiful place. it's right in the center of windsor itself, and as you said i think that's where the family will spend some time. because obviously her late husband was interred there, and the time moment will be the queen and the duke of edinburgh

will be reunited. the family can get away from what's been the most extraordinary media coverage. >> they've been in public view now for ten days. this is the end of an era. we've been talking about that now for the past ten days on cnn and the beginning of a new era. and prince charles iii and prince william who is very familiar i'm sure to many of our viewers around the world. he's now the heir apparent. he's conducted himself absolutely flawlessly over the past ten days or so. and we would expect to see more of prince william and his wife won't be in the days, weeks, months to come? >> the prince and princess of wales, and that's a big step up. and as you say prince william is ready for it, incredibly supported by the princess, their lovely kids as well. and just one small part of it, the duchy, he's going to be

taking responsibility which the land and everything. once again we see this wonderful transition. >> watch out for those little ones today. it'll be lovely to see prince george and princess charlotte, the great grandchildren of queen elizabeth ii. the two of them will be in that procession alongside their parents and their grandfather king charles iii. thank you very much, indeed. it's lovely having you with us today. as the dawn breaks in london and extraordinary security arrangements as you can imagine are in place for the queen's funeral later today. we'll go live to outside buckingham palace for more on that after this. plus people have been camping out in windsor to witness the historic procession of the queen's final journey to one of the monarch's oldest castles. we'll get you a live report from there in just a few minutes.

it's 17 minutes past 6:00 here in london. tributes to queen elizabeth are all around this city. we are looking at an image there projected on the headquarters of the bbc on sunday night. security in london is at its highest level in memory. and as thousands of world leaders gather for the queen's funeral, you can see preparations happening at buckingham palace on sunday where workers were handling scaffolding and getting situations sorted for what are the many, many people. in a few hours the queen's coffin will leave westminster hall carried on the same state gun carriage used for the funeral of her father, king george vi. she'll be taken to westminster abbey where an estimated 2,000 people will be in attendance for her funeral service. for more i'm joined by nina del

santose at buckingham palace. how big are the cruds of mourners expected to be today? and what are authorities doing to ensure everyone's safety? >> reporter: well, becky, they're expecting hundreds of thousands of people. and i can tell you just anecdotally arriving here at buckingham palace about 3:00, 4:00 in the morning there were already people lining the streets of west london desperate to try to get into my car. they actually asked to get into my car to go through the underpass to get here, obviously they didn't have the right creditation and couldn't, but obviously people trying to get to any streets that are open particularly connecting buckingham palace and people desperate to get a glims of this funeral procession as it proceeds. remember the queen's coffin left buckingham palace on wednesday

for the very last time. and we already saw large crowds there, and this is expected to be heightened in terms of security dynamics because of course we don't have hundreds of thousands of people lining the streets. we've also got 500 plus dignitaries going to be making their way to westminster abbey as well. and what they're looking desperately to see is a glimpse of the new king but also the queen's coffin as it makes its way out of london for the final time towards windsor. getting into the mechanics of the day obviously in about ten minutes time we're expecting the lying in state period at westminster hall to finish, the final members of the public to be able to pay their respects. and then they will no longer be able to do that from there on. at 8 a.m. the doors of westminster abbey will open for this congregation of 2,000 people which includes 500 dignitaries. they're going to start taking their places there, and we're not just having japanese

emperors who have have been invited to this ceremony and spanish kings and a french president, they'll also be large numbers of people who have done a lot of charity work in this country. representatives of diverse groups like the lgbtq community and people who campaigned for say against night crime or helped out enormously during the pandemic. later on what we're expecting is members of the royal family to leave buckingham palace for that funeral procession. the king will leave from his own official residence nearby clarence house. and when the queen's coffin is loaded onto a gun carriage then of course the king, his siblings will move in the procession. becky? >> thank you. well, after the state funeral this morning queen elizabeth's coffin will be taken to windsor for what is a private committal

service. and people there have been camping out overnight perhaps hoping to catch a glimpse of the queen's procession. the service at windsor will be a lot more intimate than that at westminster with just the joil family past and present, members of the royal household and personal staff. the queen will be laid to rest in the king george vi memorial chapel which lies within st. george's chapel. the coffin of the queen's late husband, prince philip, will also moved from its current resting place so he can be buried alongside her. as we said the ceremony expected to be a more intimate affair there. what's the atmosphere like, and what have people been telling you about why they're there? >> look, becky, it's still very

early in the morning. the sun is just coming up. we are already seeing people coming here to the high street around windsor castle waiting for that opportunity to see the procession later today to pay their respects. it is, of course, where the queen will later on be buried. and we have seen people camping out along the streets around windsor much as we've seen around central london. and this was of course a deeply important place for the queen. as you mentioned there while the first service at westminster abbey is going to be more of a grand state affair this is going to be more intimate and personal as well. we are expecting around 800 people to be in attendance at that second service at windsor castle just behind me. and it'll include members of the queen's household past and present as well as personal staff across the estates. and there will be nods to the queen's family and personal life. and this of course the very first place where her husband

was buried and laid to rest in april of last year. there'll be song sung at his funeral and this will be a deeply personal affair and we'll see the queen's coffin lowered into that vault just below st. george's chapel at the closing of that commitment service. later on in the evening a very private burial service will take place here in windsor attended by close family members, and of course this will be a private affair and she'll be buried alongside the late prince philip, the duke of edinburgh, and her parents here. we've seen earlier crowds lining the street. there are people behind me with suitcases ready to wait out the long hours of the service this afternoon for the procession to arrive here in windsor. there is a significant police presence here. we've seen many volunteers

lining the streets since the early hourers this morning because of course this will be a large scale security situation as well. the infrastructure has been setup. the union flag lining the streets. this will be a huge event for the town of windsor of course and a moment many people in this local area will remember for years to come. becky? >> thank you for that. still to come this morning we are covering reaction from around the world. the united kingdom prepares its final farewell to queen elizabeth. you're watching "cnn newsroom." i'm becky anderson. stay with us. ks can be a real challenge. that's why i use the freestyle e libre 2 syste. with a painless, one-second scan i know my glucose numbers without fingersticks. now i'm managing my diabetes better and i've lowered my a1c from 8.2 to 6.7. take the mystery out of managing your diabetes and lower your a1c. now you know. try it for free at freestylelibre.us

well, these are live pictures from inside westminster hall where the queen's been lying in state since wednesday, and you are now seeing some of the very last mourners who will be allowed inside the building to pay their respects after which westminster hall will close on and the queen's coffin will be moved to westminster abbey. that will happy momentarily, the closure of that hall and those people getting their final opportunity. welcome back to our viewers around the world. i'm becky anderson in london where the time is 6:30 in the morning. here's what we are expecting to see in the hours ahead. after the lying in state period ends the queen's coffin will be moved from westminster hall to westminster abbey. that is just a very short distance between the two. the funeral service will begin

at westminster abbey after will be conducted by the dean of westminster. before the service the tenor bell of the abbey will be tolled every minute for 96 minutes, one for each year of the queen's life. after the service the procession sets off to wellington arch. members of the royal family will follow on foot. the queen's coffin will then be moved to the state hurst and the procession will continue to st. george's chapel at windsor castle which is the west of london. the queen will be buried in a private ceremony attended by king charles, members of the royal family, and staff. well, heads of state and dignitaries from around the world will be attending the queen's funeral today. some countries are also commemorating the queen's life and legacy with events of their

own. angus, let's start with you. how are australians marking what is a very big day in history? >> absolutely, becky. australians certainly feel the momentous occasion that this is. australians of today farewelling their sauvren, one of 14 countries of course outside the u.k. where the british monarch is the head of state. so of course it's front page of every national newspaper, every single national television network will be taping the queen's funeral live. and australians around the country will be meeting to watch that go ahead and to participate in services marking the queen's funeral. that's going to happen here where i am. at st. andrew's cathedral here in sydney. the seat of the archbishop of sydney where the queen did visit several times on her some 16 visits to this country including in the portrait behind me you

see pictured here this cathedral in 1954. the prime minister of australia on a visit of his own there iplon iplondon to attend the funeral of queen elizabeth ii he's talked about being the prime minister there as the world says good-bye to the monarch of great britain. he's talked about being in 1998 as a backpacker in london at westminster now coming back as the leader of a country and meeting king charles iii there on saturday. he might not be the person that you'd expect to toast the king of australia as he did in london this week. anthony albanesy is a republican and putting those politics to one side as his nation mourns the passing of queen elizabeth ii. >> angus is in sydney, australia. before let's get a look at the

images coming in now. this is an opportunity for people to pay their respects. remember this has been going on since wednesday of last week. it is now 6:30 in the morning in london, and over the last four days more than 250,000, a quarter of a million people as we understand it, have had the opportunity to file past this coffin. the queues at one point snaking along the river for 6 miles. it was 24 hours that some people waited in line overnight to pay their respects. and now the hall is empty and it's quiet. and some moments just for those who are in that room of quiet

contemplation. later on, this morning, of course, the queen's casket will be moved to westminster abbey where a state funeral the likes of which we haven't seen since 1965 since winston churchill's funeral will get under way. let's get you to nigeria. stephanie, what's the general mood and reaction? >> well, becky, good morning. things are a bit more muted here. it's not a public holiday. for instance, it's a normal working day, and many of course remember the queen with a lot of affection. she visited nigeria twice during her reign and there's been registers of condolences open and the british of high commissions and some search services held in her honor, but it is a kind of normal working day. people will remember with affection, but it isn't a big sense of occasion as you're

seeing in other parts of the world. and of course there's a complicated history here in nigeria, which was a former colony of britain, and many parts of the continent where the queen's legacy is seen as somewhat complex because of that -- the atrocities committed during colonialism. there are some who say simply that they are not mourning her passing simply because she's seen as a symbol of the oppression that they and their families went through, becky. >> 70 years in nigeria, angus in sydney australia, thank you to both of you very much indeed. let me just show you the papers i've got this morning. one image on the front of most of these british papers, this is a newly released photograph of queen elizabeth ii, "the seattle

times" simply says final farewell. the daily telegraph for you a life of selfless service. and finally "the sun." god bless her is what it says. we'll have more from london in a few moments. first let's bring in michael holmes in atlanta. >> all right, becky, we'll check in with you later. we'll take a quick break on the program. when we come hurricane fiona hits puerto rico with a fury. residents stuck with no electricity and predictions of catastrophic flooding worried about what the storm will leave behind. plus taiwan is shaken by that magnitude 6.9 earthquake. how the island is managing as after shocks continue.

welcome back. i'm michael holmes. you're watching "cnn newsroom." all of puerto rico is in the dark after being hit by hurricane fiona on sunday. have a listen. you hear it there. strong howling winds, torrential rain knocking out the territory's power grid, which may take days to get back online. and the national hurricane center is predicting life threatening and catastrophic flooding. flooding in some areas is expected to break previous records set during 2017's hurricane maria. and here's layla santiago. >> reporter: puerto ricans will be waking up to quite a bit of uncertainty after having a day of wind, flooding, mudslides, and no power.

100% without power. there is an island-wide power outage. and the company here says it could be days before power is restored. a cancer center had to be evacuated because a generator went out. a bridge in puerto rico, the center of the island, we watched as it was just washed away. the gentleman who filmed this video told us he just looked outside of his grandparent's kitchen and he could see that the river was rising quickly and that bridge just wash away. as the rain continues to come down and the wind continues on the island, there is a strong sense of frustration for those who are living out what they fear, that lack of power and floods because remember we are coming up on the five-year anniversary of hurricane mua. the hurricane that nearly five years ago just destroyed and

decimated this island leaving many without power for months in some cases nearly a year. so a lot of people feared what would happen with the power and the flooding, and now it is a becoming a reality for many of them. i spoke to one family about half an hour south of san juan, the capital, and they lost power very early in morning. we went to talk to them, and here's the exchange. i will tell you the video's very dark because there was no power. but listen in. she says when the power goes out she gets real anxious and she gets really tense, worried and she's staying here because she's left her house. it's safer here and she's worried what she's going to find at her house. again, still no word exactly when power will be restored to 3.4 million citizens on this island. and many are already saying the day will begin with an

assessment trying to figure out exactly what the impacts are from hurricane fiona. layla santiago, cnn, san juan, puerto rico. >> and meadteorologist pedram javaheri joins me next. >> the storm system you take a look at the damage that's been left in place certainly an incredible storm here given it's only a category 1, very well organized, symmetrical and producing an incredible amount of rainfall. made landfall around 3:30 p.m. local time across the southwestern area of puerto rico, approaching the areas of the island of hispaniola. and 100% of the island, well over 300 people without power at this hour. and you'll notice the storm system has lost little steam since it made landfall.

we had little interaction with the landfall point, quite a bit of moisture on this producing rainfall amountsing producing 15, 20 inches and nearly the entirety of puerto rico under neath flood alerts at this hour given how much rainfall has come down. you'll notice models suggesting another 5 to 8 inches in a few spots and total amounts exceeding here. we do expect to the lesser extent of the interaction here to be on the eastern side because quite a bit of mountains on western side of the island, the storm made a sharp right turn. we do expect this to intensify to a major hurricane within the next 24 to 48 hours. eventually on later on towards the latter half of the week parts of bermuda could be on alert in advance of the storm system. you'll notice the environment in which the u.s., at least the

mainland part of the united states looks to be steering away at least and not impacted by the storm system but still a potential major hurricane in the works in the coming several days. >> pedram, thanks so much. pedram javaheri there with the latest. and more severe weather is moving across east asia this hour. nearly 10 million people ordered to evacuate japan as a typhoon lashes the island of kyushu. japan has issued its highest disaster alert as authorities warn of unprecedented storms and rainfall. meanwhile in taiwan state media reports at least one person has died now from a 6.9 magnitude earthquake. the tremors so strong, just have a look there, a bridge collapsed. its supports twisted right out of the ground. and official reports more than a hundred aftershocks reported. i know you're going to tell us about taiwan, but let's start with that huge storm that hit where you are in japan. >> michael, let me put things in

perspective and give you an idea just how massive this storm is. we're about 1,000 kilometers away in tokyo from the eye of the storm. and we've been experiencing heavy rains off and on for several days as a result of this typhoon that just made landfall late last night. super typhoon nanmadol will go down as the strongest typhoon japan has seen with 140 kilometer winds. and for days officials have been warning about a disaster fueled by the storm surge and torrential rains. the good news here at least at this point it seems that potential large scale disaster has so far been avoided. as you had mentioned 10 million people living in southern and western japan has been ordered to evacuate as a result of this storm. even though that large scale disaster has been avoided, a lot of damage and impact as a result

of this storm is being felt. hundreds of thousands of homes across several prefectures are without power. and nhk, japan's public broadcaster, is reporting more than a hundred people have been injured as a result. it's worth noting hundreds of flights today and yesterday have been canceled and bullet train service also suspended on several lines until at least some point later this afternoon. this slow moving and powerful typhoon as i mentioned made landfall late last night around 7:00 p.m. on ckagoshima city on kyushu island. now, super typhoon nanmadol wasn't the only storm to impact this region.

the largest earthquake taiwan has recorded this year. trails were derailed, buildings collapsed, and as of this morning nearly 700 people remain trapped on two separate mountains in south eastern taiwan. taiwanese officials are saying all of those people have been taken into local shelters and will be evacuated at some point today as authorities work to clear roadblockages. so far at some point in this quake one person has died after being struck by a machine. michael? >> all right, appreciate it, blake. thanks so much. blake esic there in tokyo for us. now, ukraine grappling with the grim aftermath from the retreat of russian forces in the country's east kyiv, accusing russian forces of committing more than 34,000, quote, crimes of aggression and war crimes since the war started. cnn's nick paten walsh with more

from ckrematorsk. >> specifically this day ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy talking about these torture chambers they've discovered one in a settlement close to the russian border where it appears devices including those that may be used to give electric shocks to people have been found. now, this was presumably in detention centers where ukrainian citizens would be held. we know that russian forces have been going through them, filtering them for potential former military members, pro-government sympathizers and informers and so maybe these devices were involved in trying to work out who knew what, which we heard no comment from russian officials about this, but i will tell you there's plenty of history of russian forces
